Digital citizenship is the way people participate in digital communities and use technology as members of society.
A good digital citizen understands both rights and responsibilities. This includes protecting personal information, respecting other people, following applicable rules, checking information before sharing it and contributing to healthier online spaces.
Digital citizenship also involves recognising that online communities contain people with different experiences, backgrounds and opinions. Disagreement is normal, but disagreement does not require harassment, threats or personal attacks.
Being a responsible digital citizen means contributing to digital spaces in ways that are safer, more respectful and more useful for yourself and other people.
